bound for Astoria, foundered on the
rocks near New Years point. about
twenty miles north of this place, at y
o'clock this morning. The vessel had
lost its rudder and was driven by the
wind and waves against the coast. Two
men succeeded in reaching the shore,
although narrowly escaping drowning.
The remainder Of the crew took to the
rigging. The people from the surround

thing towards rescuing the crew. Two
men were seen in the rigging One side
of the vessel is stove in. That she will
become total wreck is probable, as the

The weekly Attempt Upon the
Gear s'No GO.,'
VIENNA, April l0.--A correspondent,
of the Post says that q report is current
to the effect that another attempt to mur
der the Gar was made on the Morska
road, st. Petersburg, last Wednesday
A student and woman were arrested
who were carrying bombs under theil
plaids.
LONDON, April l0.-A desra'ch from
st. Petersburg to the Daily News says
The most alarming reports respecting
the Gar have been in circulation
here. One rumor was to the effect
that mine had been discovered under
the Imperial palace at Gatschina, but it
is learned on the best auth ority that this
report is untrue; also that no arrests
have been made at Gatschina, as was
reported. On Wednesday, however,
when the Czar was driving to Gatschina
station a man and woman were seized
at the corner of the Nevskl Prospect
and the Great Morskai ten min.
utes before the Cars carriage passed.
Another person tried to present petition
as the Gear passed but was arrested be-
fore he could reach the carriage. 1t has
not been ascertained positively whether
or not the persons arrested had any
criminal intentions. The Gar was in
perfect health and excellent spirits.
Vienna and Berlin kilograms confirm
the foregoing and state that the culDrits
stood upon the steps of the uninhabited
house, at No. IA, and carried bombs
under their plaid shawls. 1t is supposed
that the petitioner was an accomplice OF
the other two and did not know that
the latter bad been arrested. The Car
knew nothing of the arrests. He sat
beside the Czarina and kept bowirg to
the populace. They were returning to
Gatschina from the Winter palace where
they had been receiving the Japanese
prince
LONDON, April l0-The Times St.
Petersburg correspondent confirms the
statement that number of arrests were
made there on Wednesday on the occas
ion of the visit of the Czar, but says he
is unable to confirm the report that a
fresh attempt had been made on the
Cars life.

FUTURE PUNISHMENT.

Rev. II. w. DOrsey's Ideas Rel.
alive The retO.
The decorations OF the First Baptist
Church were among the most beautiful
in the city, and the ladies must have
devoted considerable time to arranging
the flowers. On the wall above the or
gan loft was huge cross of Gala lilies
with q grounda ork of green leaves.
Below was the organ, on top Of which
was bank of orange blossoms. The
rail surrounding the organ loft was trim
med with lilies on CRIMSON background.
Surmounting the pulpit was delicats
basket of white fi1wers, and on the
front was q star and crescent. On either
side were Gala lilies and on both sides
Of the platform were huge vases Of lilies
over which hung baskets of brilliant
blooms. The edge of the platform was
relieved by border of lilies. and on the
table inside the chancel rail was basket
of " hite blossoms. The entire effect
was most pleasing in its character. In
the evening the Rev. P. w. Dorsey
delivered a sermon taking "But q
guilty of an eternal SIM" as his text.
He argued that, taking this saying, than
which no better could be found, to illus
trate his position, it was evident that
there are come who will suffer eternal
punishment, some of whom never can
be forgiven. The idea that future pun
ishment is to be physical had exploded
long since and the suffering for wrong
doing in the werld to come cannot be
compared with bodily pain. Physical
suffering was. according to his idea, the
very least, the very lowest kind or de-
gree of suffering, and the human lam
guage was too poor in sentiment to allow
the proper description of future punish
ment. The suffering for evil and wrong
doing in the other life has to be borne
by the soul, and is infinitely greater than
we can imagine. Those who will suffer
throughout eternity are those who
hate what God loves, and love
what he hates; who persist in
turning Gods love to hate, and who
revile the good that exists. Our con-
science tells us that we will be punished d
for our sins. There is no perscn but
feels that those who commit = crim1
should be punished; bat how true It /,
that suffering or punishment has M
power to purify them. Physical psir
never reforms criminal, ano there q :,

GALVESTON, TEX, April l0.-The past
week has been one of expectancy and
disappointment to the people of Texas,
no rain of any consequence having fallen
throughout the immense area now suffer.
ing from drouth. Dispatches and letters
to the Galveston News; the San Aatonio
Erpress and other papers of the State
continue to detail the widespread and
threatening character of the drouth
which has perceptibly increased since
the last report. The drouth now ex-
tends from the far western grazing lands
across the State, for a distance of 800
m les, into the pine regions bordering
Louisiana, but decreases in severity
as it approaches the pines, from
which section the complaints are
of recent date. The general
rains whcn usually set in at the full of
the moon are wanting, and the cool, dry
winds of the past fortnight continue to
prevail, except in the district immedi-
ately southwest of San Antonio, en-
bracing Medina, Bandera, Uvalde, Frio
and Atascosa counties, where moderate
rains fell yesterday, though not enough,
ss the dispatches from that vicinity say.
This is one of the grazing section of the
state where stock WAS dying. Between
San Antonio and the coast. embracing
such fertile counties as Guadaloupe, Con
zales, Lavaca, Colorado, Caldwell, Bas.
trop and dozen others, the drouth
has assumed serious aspect,
putting an embargo upon all agricultural
de yslopment, especially cotton, the chief
product of this section. One cores
pondent describes the roadways through.
ont the belt as covered to the depth of
several inches with dust. Fields are
barren even of weeds, while strings #
cattle. almost too poor to stand up, are
travelling constantly in search OF grass
and water. In central Texas embracing
about thirty counties, surrounding Waco,
Corsicana and Burnet, the situation is
scarcely less promising, all reports agree

| .iful rains will avert serious damage or
The failure Of crops. In northern and north
Western Texas the drou'h is not as Sc
yerely felt as in other sections, but com.
plants are increasing daily. A slight
sprinkle of rain fell during the week in
Mitchell county, along the line of the
Texas and Pacific road, but no report of
rainfall in the great Panhandle district
has vet been received. The result of
the drou tn is notable by the the scarcity
of early vegetables. At the principal
points the anxiety over the situation is
becoming greater every day. Whole
sale houses here are calling their drum
mers off the road, as country merchants
refuse to buy, pending the uncertainty
of the crop outlook.
